Longflash
A two-handed energy weapon that projects a focused beam of high-intensity light, typically operated from a braced or supported position to maintain stability during long-range use. Produced by WyvernWorks Studios, it replaces conventional projectile systems with Flash technology powered by a rechargeable energy source, eliminating the need for ammunition. The beam delivers reduced immediate stopping force compared to high-calibre rounds but performs effectively against armoured targets, while lowering ongoing upkeep despite a higher purchase cost. The standard model balances setup requirements, control, output, and range, achieving extremely long effective reach while requiring a recharge cycle between shots that mirrors manual bolt-action operation.
The widespread adoption of unpiloted combat drones reshaped modern engagements, placing greater emphasis on long-range interception and rapid target acquisition. Smaller, faster, and often deployed in large numbers, these systems required precise countermeasures capable of neutralizing threats before they could close distance.
The Longflash emerged as a practical response to this shift. Its ability to deliver accurate, high-speed energy strikes at extreme range made it well suited for disabling drones from beyond their effective engagement envelope, allowing operators to maintain distance while reducing incoming pressure.
